Gaz Walker Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Just print out the email confirmation in case, but the police will know after a quick check that you are taxed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartworm Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 As far as I know your not meant to drive it without the disk, risk of £250 fine for not displaying the disk, I had to take the company van off the road till they sent me a new tax disk the eijits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanchan Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Probably a good idea mate. The police can check you're taxed if they stopped you, but if a traffic warden decided to take a disliking to your car, they wouldn't be able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a bit crappy, I can understand why but when you've paid its seems a little harsh. Gaz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

razza Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I'm sure when I was late renewing my tax, someone at the DVLA told me you get 14 days grace anyway so it wouldn't be a problem, I drove for a few days without the new disc, no problems.

You were told wrong then. There is NO 14 days grace period, the 14 day bit is the time period that you can apply for a new disc BEFORE it starts.
